World Choir for Peace
We are a new choir that brings together singers from all over the world.
Our goal is to bring about a culture of peace through singing together, both as individuals and as part of our choral community, which is growing from project to project. We have only one planet and our common aspiration should be to honour it and treat all of its creatures with care. This will help us to have a secure future that is not shaped by heat and drought, by storms and floods, by violence, terror and wars.
We invite you to sing with us!
